A CALayers tutorial that shows you how you can add drop shadows, rounded corners, and other neat effects to views in your iOS app.

The example code does not run. It crashes with uncaught exception of type NSException.

To run the sample you have to make the viewController as the rootViewController in the ‘LayerFunAppDelegate’
in the ‘didFinishLaunchingWithOptions’ method.
See code junk below. This should avoid the exception.

      [self.window addSubview:viewController.view];
--> [self.window setRootViewController:viewController];
     [self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
